[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 548157, member: 12570"] I personally like the "Off The Street Waltz". I am #10 on the FT seniority list and am above 3 or 4 drivers who were preloaders when I was hired. You have to remember that there is a ratio of promotion to FT positions built in to the contract. I believe the ratio is now 6 to 1. Back when I was hired it was 3 to 1. I spent 11 months as a casual back in 1989/90. Would working the preload have given me a greater appreciation of the job that they do and the frustration that they have when someone is hired off the street and promoted before they are? Absolutely, but I didn't negotiate the contract, I just used it to my advantage. [/QUOTE]
